Marcus Brigstocke Devil May Care 5*****
August 6, 2018 | one4review
I do love Marcus. He doesn’t just turn up. You always get a show that’s been thoroughly researched and well practised. He knows his audience. At Latitude you might get a Prince singalong, or maybe a news review, but you … Read More

August 6, 2018 | one4review
Tonight John endeared himself to the sweltering cellar audience early on by identifying a rogue air conditioning unit as the culprit. He strengthened his bond with the audience by then targeting an innocent reviewer sitting in the back row who … Read More
Mark Watson : The Infinite Show 5*****
August 6, 2018 | one4review
Mark Watson is a recognisable comedy performer. He’s been on TV. He has various claims to fame, other than being mistaken for David Baddiel. He was voted, by a well known publication, as the 50th sexiest Jew! Quite flattering, he … Read More
Tom Lucy : Reluctant Millennial 4****
August 6, 2018 | one4review
Tom Lucy bounded into the venue with his usual youthful energy. Tonight he almost retreated back out again! Tonight he is confronted by a sight that would make the most hard core experienced stand up run for the exit; a … Read More

John-Luke Roberts: All I Wanna Do Is [FX: GUNSHOTS] With a [FX: GUN RELOADING] and a [FX: CASH REGISTER] and Perform Some Comedy! 5*****
August 5, 2018 | one4review
John-Luke describes this show as a ‘manifesto for absurdity’, a celebration of the fact that most of life doesn’t confirm to neatly plotted narrative arcs, and an acknowledgement that this is okay, is even a source of amusement. It might … Read More
Late’n’Live 3***
August 5, 2018 | one4review
Late’n’Live comes with a reputation of being rather riotous; the show I saw seemed quite calm (caveat of ‘calm for a drunk audience at 1am’), though the press office and the compere did mention an incident of on-stage vomiting the … Read More
Olga Koch: Fight 4****
August 5, 2018 | one4review
The Scotland-Russia Forum each year compiles a list of festival shows which are from, about, or to do with Russia. Ms Koch’s (pronounced to rhyme with ‘loch’) show, as well as being funny, manages to give a flavour of living … Read More
